With a stupid grin on his face the last time cardiff won at goodison was way back in 1926 the fact we have played in different divisions apart from our last stint in the prem when we played at goodison i cannot remember the score there then but assuming we lost, he could have quite easily have said everton have only beaten cardiff once since 1926 neder seen anything about our penalty shout not worthy .he was also so exited about his old leicster boss at fulham and his interview with man city boss pep was sickening gushing how do you keep your winning streak going and the players motivated and talking to shearer and wright about how unstopable they are the fact they are the richest sqaud in europe £980 million compared with cardiffs sqaud 59 million might have something to do with it , the blokes a complete tool imo

Why does everybody expect us to have so much glowing coverage?

The vast majority of people don't watch Match of the Day to see Cardiff play, so our air time will always be limited. And what he says about Man City, it is true, despite the money they have spent.

Don't let it bother you so much.

Spot on. I would guess that for most fans in Britain, the likes of Cardiff, Brighton, Bournemouth etc., are the last teams that they want to watch, unless they are playing against one of the big four or five dominant top teams. MOTD is there to attract a large audience, and apart from us City fans, not much of the country will be tuning in to watch Cardiff.

True enough, but that doesn't negate Mr Linekers duty to be impartial or justify any little vendettas he might like to conduct against particular clubs.

SIR JIMMY SHCOULAR

Well said i think it has more to do with his x who was a welsh girl obviosly not a amicable split hence the snide remarks about neil warnock and his little old cardiff which he has metioned on previous, you would think the english football lot would be putting neil on a pedestal in his last year of managing and his record as an englishman not many have had 8 promotions and all those years service to football but all you get is mick taking and snide comments from an overpayed tw.t lineaker

Your 'thinking' is incorrect! :( :roll:

Lineker and Danielle divorced for 'future family' reasons but it was as amicable as it could be and they remain very good friends...to the extent that Lineker was by her side during her recent illness

Lineker has no axe to grind with Cardiff or its football club, although it is clear he has a bias towards certain (ex) clubs in his punditry

be fair...he would have said the 1926 line had we won or drawn , heard similar a hundred times..its just a stat.
we have played them more than once since 1926 btw so he could not say that.

spot on Sven he came to my cousins ( his ex mother in law) funeral this was the day after the England Belgium pool match in the WC, had a couple of hours up the Ely home guard then had to fly back to Russia.
like you said he has an affinity to all his old clubs

So go on then, Secret Squirrel; spill the beans...

I doubt you can because there aren't any that are of real interest and I refer to my previous post for the facts ;)

Used to like the guy. , but he makes me feel uncomfortable now, the way he sits forward in that chair waving his arms about asking silly questions like he's never played the game. He's a joke now.
